Can we say "politics", students? The ACLU will be ALL OVER this bit of disrespect for students' rights: http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/29/healt...national-anthem-stand-mandate-trnd0236PMStory
All through school my classmates and I stood for the national anthem. Nobody ever questioned the practice and none of us thought our rights were being violated.
I have no problems doing this with children that are in America. Once they are adults they can make up their own minds.
